Any ideas?
OS is Suse 11.1 on 64bit AMD quad core. Note I can run Google Earth natively rather than using Wine, but I have an application in wine that needs to interface to Google Earth. If there was some way it could connect to the Google Earth under Linux, that would solve my problem.
Incidentally, I tried to trick wine by copying all files and directories from a windows installation of Google Earth. It barfs a bit trying to create some files, but does eventually show part of the Google Earth program. Basically the "frame", but not the earth inside the frame. I used the winetricks to get all the fonts installed.
If there is a way to get the program running by copying a windows install, I'm game for that too.
